Dear Friends and Community,

We are writing this with a heavy heart to share the heartbreaking news of the loss of our daughter, Kristen, on September 16th. Her passing has left a profound void in the lives of all who knew and loved her. Kristen was a loving fiancé to Jim, a devoted mother to their 3-year-old son, Mikey, and a wonderful stepmother to Myla and Jimmy. Our hearts ache for them during this unimaginable time.

As Jim navigates the overwhelming responsibilities of being a single father, he faces immense challenges while trying to provide for their family. No one can begin to fathom the weight on his shoulders, and we want to do everything we can do to ease his burden and give him the time he needs to grieve the loss of his beloved wife.

This GoFundMe page is a way for us to come together as a community and support Jim and the children during this difficult time. Any contribution you can make, no matter how small, will go directly to helping them with everyday expenses, childcare, and anything else they may need as they navigate this new reality without Kristen.

Thank you for considering a donation. Your generosity will mean so much to Jim and the kids, and it will help honor Kristen’s beautiful spirit. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your support during this incredibly challenging time.

With love and gratitude,

Colleen and Jim Holland
